For the automotive crowd

The after-show
that fits the show.

SEMA brings the automotive industry to Las Vegas. The Grid keeps that energy going after show hours with professional racing simulators manufactured by Sim Coaches in Las Vegas.

Bring a coworker, a customer or several teammates. Reserve up to eight rigs in the same available time window and turn an ordinary SEMA team outing into practice, qualifying and a race everyone can talk about the next morning.
